Enjoy the festive season the healthy way.
Check out Top Tips for Healthy Festive Celebrations to help keep your energy, hydration, BP and blood sugar stable during the holidays.
Eat regular meals – skipping meals can cause tiredness and sugar crashes.
Balance your plate – include vegetables or salad with every festive meal.
Stay hydrated – drink water throughout the day, especially in the heat.
Pace your drinks – alternate alcoholic beverages with water or sugar-free drinks.
Watch the extras – sauces, puddings and fizzy drinks add unexpected sugar.
Keep chronic medicines with you – don’t miss doses when out or travelling.
Refill your scripts early – avoid last-minute rushes or holiday shortages.
Listen to your body – if you feel unwell, dizzy or experience chest discomfort, seek help.
Practice safe celebrations – plan lifts, designated drivers or taxis when drinking
